DYNES family in Armagh in 18thC
« on: Monday 02 January 06 22:58 GMT (UK) »
Hi, Everyone,
It has been pointed out to me on another thread I initiated here that there are DYNES family interests in County Clare.  But can I ask whether there is anyone with any connections or information on this family in County Armagh as early as the 18thC...particularly in a place called Bluestone.
Very best wishes,
Keith

Hi again,
If you want I can look up the Seagoe Parish registers(these would include Bluestone) possibly next week to see what Dynes' are listed?!?
By the way Bluestone is not actually a townland. The neighbouring/surrounding townlands are Lylo, Ballygargin,Crossmacaughley(there are various spellings of this),Moyraverty. Check out the Craigavon Historical society's website.

Hi again, Aljepeka,
If you could possibly look at the Seagoe parish records, I would be MOST grateful.  When it comes to Irish genealogy and place location, I'm afraid I'm a complete novice at the moment...
Very best wishes,
Keith
p.s. I forgot to reiterate that there should be a marriage in Bluestone for a James KERSHAW and a "Miss DYNES" c. 1750

Mary's parents Acheson DYNES and Mary HENDRON.

Acheson's parents Valentine DYNES and Mary? b. Derrytagh, Co Armagh.

If you would like any more information on this family just let me know.

Gail,
This is all most interesting!  As I have absolutely nothing at all on the DYNES other than an extremely vague reference to the Miss DYNES of 1750 at Bluestone par (was it?) Seagoe, I would welcome any information you have on this line.  The 3 generations you give would certainly bring things back to the 18thC, I should imagine.
Perhaps you would be so kind as to PM me with as much info as you have on these DYNES.  I would be most grateful...
Very best wishes,
Keith

Keith, if you have a look  at this site you will see a number of links that refer to Dynes in the area, including Seagoe Parish. Hope this is of some help.

Scotmum,
Thanks so much for all those lovely links!  I really have something to work on now... Plus Gail has sent me a brilliant file of her DYNE's, and I'm going to PM you about that, Gail...
Very best wishes,
Keith
